VPS / VDS Portugal with KVM virtualization - an opportunity to host projects of any complexity (custom or product development, 1C, mobile applications, trading platforms, etc.). When choosing a virtual or dedicated server, you should take into account the characteristics of the processor, RAM, hard disk, etc. If necessary, the system is quickly scalable: you just need to choose a different tariff. This works both in the direction of increasing capacity, and in the direction of its reduction.

What is VPS / VDS Portugal and why the physical location of the server is important

Virtual Private Server or Virtual Dedicated Server is based on a real physical server, which is located in Portugal.

Virtualization technologies (in particular, KVM - Kernel-based Virtual Machine) allow you to distribute the server capacity between 2, 3, 6 or more virtual machines.

When ordering a VPS / VDS, the user gets this VM at his disposal. There is no dependence on "neighbors" (and there are no situations when your project parameters "fall" because the co-tenant has increased the load).

Renting VPS / VDS Portugal provides a number of advantages:

  • working with projects oriented to the markets of Western Europe (in particular, Spain, France, etc.);
  • gaining an additional advantage in the search engine results;
  • the ability to host projects of any complexity: online stores, mobile applications for dating / real estate transactions / training, etc.;
  • guarantee of server protection against unauthorized persons, information theft, DDOS attacks, etc.

Any operating system or its distribution can be installed on Virtual Private Server or Virtual Dedicated Server. The user receives root rights for administration.

How a virtual server in Portugal is organized

The technology of creating a VPS/VDS server is the same everywhere: there is a program computer that solves one task - emulation of a real computing machine. It should be noted that the architecture of a VPS/VDS server is somewhat more complex than the "classic" solution: an important component of the entire system is a hypervisor, thanks to which it is possible to virtualize.

Hypervisors are of two types:

  • bare-metall: functions on the physical hardware of the host machine and serves only for virtualization purposes;.
  • hosted: functions inside the OS of the physical host machine. Unlike bare-metall, hosted has a single software layer.

Thought-out server deployment technology makes it possible to administer resources through the main administrator console, if necessary, one virtual server can be moved to another, as well as there will be no problems with the search and allocation of additional space on the hard disk, RAM.

How does VPS/VDS work?

By means of virtualization technology VDS server starts working as a separate physical server. The client chooses Portugal as the location of his project, and is satisfied with consistently high speed, reliability, responsiveness of the server.

On any VPS/VDS is not difficult to put the OS you need (Linux, Windows Server). The user will be able to use root-access, install software at will, work with files and applications.

It is important to note the fact that a virtual server in Portugal has no restrictions on the number of hosted projects, databases, FTP, e-mail boxes. The owner of the server (tenant) can perform practically any manipulations with it, namely:

  • install OS;
  • install software;
  • customize its operation.

Interaction with the VPS/VDS occurs as with a real physical server. But it should be noted that renting a virtual server will cost you many times cheaper than the same service, but in relation to a dedicated server.

Each mini-server (VPS/VDS) operates on a separate IP-address, if necessary, the user can purchase an additional one. VPS/VDS functions independently of other mini-servers, which are on the same hosting machine. That is, a failure, accident, any unforeseen situation on one server does not affect the functioning of others.

About virtual server virtualization

Server virtualization

Virtualization is a technology that allows you to run multiple virtual operating systems on a single physical server. Each virtual server has its own operating system, CPU time, RAM, disk, and network configuration. Virtual servers are completely isolated from each other, allowing them to be used as separate servers.

When you use virtual servers instead of physical servers, you get a more flexible and cost-effective solution for hosting your applications, websites, and other services on the Internet. Virtual servers allow you to:

  1. Scale resources based on the needs of your project.
  2. Install the necessary software and operating system.
  3. Reboot the server when necessary.
  4. Utilize functionality such as backup and server monitoring.
  5. Gain full control over the server without buying your own hardware and maintenance.

The operation of the virtual server can be managed through the control panel provided by the hosting provider or through an SSH console. In any case, you will be able to manage the server in the same way as if it were a physical server, but with much lower costs and greater flexibility.

Why it is worth to order VPS / VDS Portugal rental

Renting a virtual or dedicated server Portugal (data centers can be located in Lisbon, Porto, Evora, Viana do Castelo, Viseo, Vila Nova di Gaia and other cities) is:

  1. Hardware performance and guaranteed resources. Virtualization technologies allow you to get dedicated space and not have to face your neighbors. In addition to KVM, can use VMware, Hyper-V, KVM, Xen hypervisors.
  2. Unlimited traffic. Virtual Private Server or Virtual Dedicated Server in Portugal allows you to work with projects of any complexity. The main thing is not to violate the country's legislation and international norms.
  3. Management and authorization are the same as when working with a physical server. The user gets root-access, and then can distribute powers within the team (developers, DevOPS, system administrators, etc.). You can roll up or uninstall software, customize the environment, deploy stands, view logs, and much more.
  4. Installation of any operating system that will be convenient to work with. There are ready-made control panels, you can order additional ones (Ispmanager 6, CyberPanel, Virtualmin, VestaCP and so on).
  5. Monitoring HTTP, MySQL, ICMP of a virtual or dedicated server.

To minimize the risk of data loss, it is worth setting up a backup system.

For what projects do I need to rent VPS / VDS Portugal?

Virtual and / or dedicated servers are needed if:

  1. The capacity of conventional hosting is not enough. This affects the quality of work: 500 errors fall, hangs and other bugs appear. It is not reasonable to order a physical server (or build it yourself).
  2. You need a server on which you roll your own software. Hostings come in a "basic package" (usually with PHP). If you are developing on Python, Node.js, etc., there is a question of ordering a virtual or dedicated server.
  3. Scaling the project. An application, online store, news or information resource has significantly "grown", so additional capacity is required. The advantage is that as the project scales, you can order additional tariff plans (up to renting a physical server).
  4. It is necessary to provide access to a remote desktop. Remote Desktop Protocol allows you to connect to Windows-based servers.
  5. You start a project and want to lay down the right structure and scaling at this stage so that you don't get distracted by it in the future. There are tasks for which virtual or dedicated servers are initially more suitable (hosting capacity is not enough).

Prices for VPS / VDS Portugal start from 5 euros equivalent. When ordering a virtual / dedicated server for 1 year or more, you can seriously save (up to 15% discount). In 10 minutes after payment you get access to VPS / VDS and can start working.

What to consider when choosing a server

Before buying a tariff plan, you should study all the features of the project and the characteristics of the capacities (processor and their type, hard disk capacity, RAM, etc.). The minimum price starts from 5 euros, the maximum reaches 151 euros per month. When ordering for a year or more there is an opportunity to save 15%.

When choosing a VPS/VDS, be sure to consider the following criteria:

  • manageability: who has the right to manage the work of the virtual server? If it can be done from the user's side, you will need the help of a system administrator;
  • configuration: the location of the server determines its speed, performance;
  • reliability: many hosting companies claim uptime 99.9%, but in practice it is not always so. Read reviews of the host before ordering the service.

Another important selection criterion is the work of the support service. It should be available at all times. After all, if there are problems in the server operation on the part of the hoster, they should be eliminated quickly, and you could make a request, reporting the problem
